Most notably, popular budget airline Spirit Airlines officially went under and ceased all operations overnight, leaving a gap in affordable flights offered for travelers. However, now there’s some good news for flyers who are traveling in or out of Orlando International Airport — two airlines have now added new routes!
According to the Orlando Business Journal, two airlines will expand their offerings at Orlando International Airport following Spirit’s shutdown. On May 5th, Breeze Airways announced it would begin a new nonstop flight route between Orlando and Atlantic City, New Jersey, beginning on July 3rd. The best part? It’ll run EACH day! The new route will begin at just $89 for a one-way. In the press release announcing the addition, Breeze Airways CEO David Neeleman said, “The daily nonstop to Atlantic City is another extension of the growth we have seen as MCO continues to be one of our largest markets. Our guests will enjoy this service to America’s Playground, and we look forward to welcoming them onboard.”

Just a few days prior, on May 2nd, Avianca Airlines announced that they plan to expand their current flight between Orlando and Medellin, Colombia, to become year-round, AND to be offered daily. However, the expansion is currently pending approval from both governments. Previously, this flight was typically only offered during the summer season.

These new flights are helping to lessen the gap the shutdown of Spirit has caused, but there are still many routes that need replacing. Could we see more airlines step in to assist with those in the near future? We’ll keep an eye out, because it is possible!
